In the realm of everyday carry, where reliability and precision are paramount, the SOG Ultra XR folding knife emerges as a formidable companion. At first glance, its dimensions may suggest modesty—measuring only 6.5mm in thickness and weighing a mere 34 grams—but do not be deceived by its svelte silhouette.
The heart of this tool lies in its CRYO CPM S35VN stainless steel blade—a material renowned for exceptional edge retention and durability. The blade's clip point shape facilitates precision tasks while maintaining strength at the tip, ensuring versatility across various applications.
The handle is crafted from carbon fiber, offering both resilience and an impressive weight-to-strength ratio. Its black hue complements the gold titanium nitride finish on the blade, presenting an aesthetic that speaks to sophistication without sacrificing functionality.
Equipped with SOG's XR Lock mechanism, this knife allows for smooth ambidextrous operation; opening it single-handedly becomes second nature whether you're left or right-handed. When engaged, the lock ensures unwavering security during use—a nod to thoughtful engineering.
An added feature is the titanium pocket clip which doubles as a money clip—an ingenious design choice that enhances portability without adding bulk.
